Your choices in that size are very limited. I'm kind of a tire enthusiast so I would have to suggest the Pirelli Scorpions out of all the ones available... they're on sale too! Not bad for such a big tire.

Too bad they don't have the Continental CrossContact's in that size cause that would be my #1 choice followed by the Pirelli's

I was considering going with 22" wheels but after noticing the very limited tire availability I decided to go with 21" wheels.
Post some pics when you get the mounted
Here are my Niche Essen M146 wheels 21x10.5 ET45 with Pirelli PZero 295/35ZR21 tires:

Still a little bit low for my taste.
I do not have the air ride suspension so to lower it any at all I would have to replace the springs and try to figure out the problem of aligning the camber, especially on the rear. Then the ride quality would suffer as well, not sure if I would like that or not.

Oh right...somewhat more difficult in your situation..very easy for me and to tweak just a simple twist of the turnbuckle = 1/4" up/down per rev...but I guess it doesn't really matter..

I know, wish I had that option sometimes
Just had them put on and maybe the suspension will settle a bit but I am happy with it overall the way it is. The ride comfort is actually better with this setup than with the 19" standard wheels i had.

SUV's, Sedans, Wagons and Commercials.
We saw the need and were the first company to provide fully adjustable suspension.
Now you can return your Mercedes to factory specs after altering height or tire size. Fitting wider profile tires, fix steering pull and with the advantage also of ongoing adjustment for curb knock damage or being able to alter specs on track days.
Front Camber and Caster, Rear Camber (and extra Toe) adjustment to resolve premature, costly inner edge tire wear, improve traction, directional control along with cornering and steering response.
K-MAC patented design, bolt on kits, no special tools required. Fast, single wrench adjustment, to suit virtually every Mercedes model.
Proven designs (K-MAC - manufacturing front and rear kits longer than anyone else). Simply fit and forget - and enjoy the new found handling characteristics.
Month of May special FedEx freight deal for MB World members USA/Canada one kit $25 or front and rear kits $35.
